Description: | Most 19th century newspapers were published only once or twice a week, and were usually four or eight pages long. The 'Leader' was among the first to publish daily editions. Daily newspapers typically devoted between half and three-quarters of each edition of their pages to advertising. Similarly their promotional fliers were often combined with those of other products to help cover the costs. This newspaper advert is a good example: the other side advertises a newly opened drapery shop owned by F Maskrey. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Subjects: | Newspapers | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | National Press Agency Ltd, 18 Whitefriers Street, | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
